"With analog and wavetable oscillators, three filters, endlessly intricate multitrack sequencer, Sequential instruments, the Pro 3 challenges the very notion of what a monosynth can be. For more about the Pro 3, read here: https://www.perfectcircuit.com/signal...

The Pro 3 is not beholden to any musical style—capable of everything from smooth leads to complete tracks of jarring, edgy rhythmic sequences, it is every bit monosynth as it is drum machine or destructive sound device. It offers two analog oscillators and one wavetable oscillator, which can each operate with relative independence: the option for three-note paraphony means that polyphonic textures and sequences can easily be coaxed out of this instrument.

The extensive modulation options, though, are what really brings it to life. It offers looping envelopes, LFOs, a 16-track modulation sequencer, a huge modulation matrix, and even assignable CV inputs and outputs. Paired with the velocity and aftertouch-capable keyboard and arpeggiator, this means that the Pro 3 can be played in a huge number of ways. So whether you're used to working with sequencers, modular synths, or keyboards, the Pro 3 can easily find a place in your setup."
